1 pkg. (8 oz.) cream cheese, softened
1 1/2 tsp. vanilla
1/2 c. chopped pecans
1 loaf (16 oz.) French bread
4 eggs
1 c. whipping cream
1/2 tsp. ground nutmeg
Peach topping

In a small bowl, beat together cream cheese and vanilla until fluffy; stir in nuts and set aside. Cut bread into 10 to 12 (1 1/2 inch) slices; cut pocket in top of each. Fill each with 1 1/2 tablespoons of the cheese mixture.

In medium bowl, combine eggs, whipping cream and nutmeg. Using tongs, dip filled bread slices in egg mixture, being careful not to squeeze out filling. Cook on lightly greased griddle until both sides are golden brown. To serve, drizzle Peach Topping over hot French Toast. Makes 10 to 12 servings.
